Instructors
at Brock are exploring new ways to teach concepts that
have proven difficult in conventional classroom environments.
Through a partnership between CTLET and ITS, Brock has
been working with interested faculty to produce learning
objects to enhance teaching with internet based technology.
Learning objects are computer based teaching tools that
help students understand a specific concept and are intended
to be both modular and self contained.

At
Brock this means that learning objects are developed by
our team of students employed as Learning
Technology Developers (LTDs). The objects are created
within a web-based program called Flash. LTDs work with
the faculty member as the content specialist to create
an interactive teaching tool. Learning objects can be
used within WebCT, in smart classrooms, or almost any
other electronic environment thanks to the flexibility
of Flash.

All
faculty who wish to develop digital resources to assist
with a particular educational bottleneck are invited to
contact CTLET. If
you have any questions about learning objects at Brock
in general please contact us.

Completed
learning objects are peer reviewed and can be accessed
through CLOE (Co-Operative
Learning Object Exchange ). Please contact CTLET if
you would like to apply for full access to CLOE or if
you would like more information on Brock University's
learning object development.

that is ready to be submitted to CLOE please click here
